British Columbia liquor inspectors confirmed Thursday they’re investigating a pub in the suburb city of Coquitlam on allegations the establishment served the embattled Toronto mayor after hours.

Douglas Scott, the Liquor Control and Licensee Branch assistant deputy attorney minister, said in a statement authorities were looking into what happened in the early morning hours of Feb. 1.

“Anytime information is received that an establishment may have violated the terms of its licence, the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch will gather the facts to determine whether a contravention has taken place,” Scott said.

Ford was seen at the Foggy Dew Pub, next to his Coquitlam hotel, hours after he was ticketed for jaywalking.

At the time, he said the police singled him out, and added, “Everybody jaywalks.”

“I said, ‘I can’t believe this,’” Ford told QMI Agency. “They (the RCMP) went out of their way to do this. I said, ‘I support you guys. Did you arrest me because I am a Broncos fan?’”

Ford has yet to address questions about whether he was drinking that night.

The mayor swore off alcohol after a "come-to-Jesus moment" when he admitted in November that he smoked crack cocaine.

But before heading to B.C. for the funeral of friend David Price's mother, Ford acknowledged he had a "minor setback" and had been drinking again.
